Known issues

• There are still some cases where the extension doesn't properly override the default javascript behaviour of the web page
• If you switch tabs, the extension is still active but the script that the extension needs to work properly has not been injected in the new tab web page. Turn the extension off/on to inject the script in the current tab
• The script injected by the extension is present on the page as long as you don't reload the page, which can cause css issues. Just reload the page to delete the script and get back to the default css
